Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Question related to the new preferred share offering: ECN.PR.C which yields at the very minimum 6.25%.

Deal was sold out and as soon as it started trading the share price dropped below the $25 issue price and is now below $24.

Why would anyone buy the issue at $25 and sell it right after. Any ideas?

Also, would you recommend adding to it below $24. I have 700 shares which represents around 1.2% of my portfolio.

Thank You.

Q: i agree with stevens question on knight.
i owned 40,000 shares of knight, i have been in since 6.00, now i have only 12,000 shares.i did well but honestly i expected more.
it is unlikely that jonathan goodman will do anything with his 760 million stash in 2017 , he is looking to buy something for almost nothing and what bothers me more than anything, is he raised money 4 times diluted the stock each time and then did nothing with the money and he clearly states it is a stock for your grandkids, so we could be waiting a decade or more and he also says paladin took 19 years to payoff.
my question is do you think maybe you are being too optimistic on this company especially since you have it in 2 portfolios.dave

Q: Knight Therapeutics (GUD) is my largest holding. Each morning, I get up and while doing the usual ten minute standing ab routine to get going, I wonder what Johnathan Goodman is doing. Unlike me, he has about $760M in cash in his pockets and, again unlike me, he seems unwilling to part with it. I completely understand this is a long term investment and I look at it as a form of security for our future but if he were to go out and buy "someone big" with a product line and a sales force, I can't help but dream that this stock will multiply significantly. Can you send him a message and tell him to start doing those ab exercises. He needs to get moving.
Am I being a little impatient and do you see any signs of activity that might be remotely encouraging?
Thanks.
